Interested in looking back on the trends that have shaped CFO's risk appetite in recent years? This library of past Global CFO Signals reports provides a look back at the historical events shaping the business culture.

Over the past year, CFOs have dealt with plenty of surprises—equity market volatility at the beginning of the year, swings in currency and commodity prices, and the unexpected Brexit vote in the UK in June. The 2016 Q3 Global CFO Signals report saw palpable anticipation over the US presidential election outcome.

Brexit loomed large in the minds of CFOs. For CFOs identifying potential risk exposures and considering strategies for doing business in the UK and the EU, there is some comfort in having the vote over without a widespread impact to the world economy.
